## Export Table Widget

You can export the data displayed in a selected table widget as a structured `CSV` file. This allows you to easily download and share the table’s data in a standard, organized format.

<Tip>If a [Filter Widget](/docs/blink-platform/dashboards/building-a-dashboard/widgets/filter) is connected and applied to the selected Table Widget, any active filters will automatically be reflected in the exported data. This ensures that only the filtered dataset is included in the CSV export.</Tip>
<Note> The table data will be sanitized-an apostrophe will be added to values that start with `=, +, -, @`</Note>
